# I don't know anyone who thought The Office was hilarious
Where ARE all these people that made it 'Britain's best comedy since Fawlty Towers', 'cos I haven't met them!?

# I thought it was utterly fantastic
I still do. It was zeigeisty at the time which gave it the accolades, but like any kind of high, it wears off very quickly

# I'd somewhat agree with you there
While I like Spaced a lot and find it quite funny and quotable it's nowhere near being one of Britain's best comedies.

I'll submit dinnerladies as an unjustifiably forgotten gem.

# Fair enough.
I would put it up there with the best and I never saw dinnerladies. Was it really that good?

# Dinnerladies was written by Victoria Wood, who's a stupidly funny woman
I bought the boxset for about a tenner on Play.com and it's easily the biggest bargain I've got. I thought it was hilarious in a madcap, farcical, way
